Why I provide at-home pet euthanasia

As my career has progressed, I have found helping pets transition out of this life to be the most meaningful and gratifying part of my job. The decision to say goodbye can be the most difficult and compassionate decision we make in the lives of our pets. Being able to do this in the comfort and warmth of one's own home can help ease this transition. I have been offering clients in-home euthanasia for years, and am grateful to extend this service to the community at large.

We thank Dr Kemper from our hearts for coming to our house to release Pantera from end stage kidney disease. She was so compassionate and caring, told us exactly what to expect from each step. The procedure was fast and Pantera did not feel any pain. We still are in mourning, BUT we know we did the right thing for our sweet lil kitty and companion of 20 years. Thank you, Dr Kemper. You are a bright Light.

Dr Kemper is one of our regular vets, and it was absolutely amazing that she was able to offer end-of-life care to our pet and family in our own home.

Review by Dr. Kristin Kemper

Dr Kristin Kemper was exceptionally kind and gentle with both our beloved dog and my family. She made sure my family knew what to expect before starting, and reminded them during. We could not have asked for a better vet and I am eternally grateful for her gift of peaceful home euthanasia, and her compassion throughout her visit. I cannot recommend her enough.

Dr. Kemper was wonderful. She was calm, loving, understanding and provided reassurance when we had to put our 18 year old cat down. It was myself, husband and two teen kids and after she confirmed Bella was gone, she quietly said goodbye and let herself out as we were all sobbing over Bella. I really appreciated her demeanor and compassion.
